Pet cavoodle reunited with family in Melbourne after two men charged with car theft

Moe’s proprietor, Richard Buxton, had taken the canine to his native grocery store in Brighton to purchase some groceries this morning.

“It’s a tragedy for my wife because she loves (Moe) like a son,” he mentioned, earlier within the day.

“He is like a first member of the family.”

Two males have been later arrested over the alleged theft of a black Mercedes station wagon and the cavoodle from the grocery store at about 7.30am.

Police mentioned the lads have been driving a white BMW once they have been concerned in a crash on Dorothea Mackellar Ave in Oakleigh East about 11.45am.

A 20-year-old man from The Basin and a 25-year-old Ashwood man allegedly ran from the scene of the crash and have been arrested by police close by and charged with automobile theft and different offences.

Police allege the BMW is linked to the stolen station wagon.

Witnesses instructed 9News the lads have been trailing Buxton in a white BMW earlier than one man bought out and stole the car after the digital keys have been left within the centre console.

“It was very well planned. It just happened in a minute and the car was gone,” Buxton mentioned.

Police tonight confirmed the pet pooch was again with the household.

But they mentioned the automobile, a 2017 Mercedes C250 station wagon with roof racks and registration VBG 946, was but to be situated.

Both males will each seem at Ringwood Magistrates’ Court tomorrow.
